gidantribal, ok. Let us remain focused on one bug at boot for now.

Hence, to further focus this report down, I would like to redo the Bug Description to say:

<START>
Acer Aspire 6920G, ICH8 chipset, ALC889 audio
Linux gidan-notebook 3.2.0-29-generic #46-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul 27 17:03:23 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

What is expected to happen is when one plugs headphones into the audio jack of the powered off computer, boots the computer up, and when logged into the OS remove the headphones from the audio jack, the audio switches from the headphones to the speakers automatically.

What happens instead is it does not.

This is a regression from 11.10.

This problem does not occur when using the repo Ubuntu kernel 3.2.0-29-generic and ALSA drivers (dkms-hda - 0.201208302203~precise1) https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-audio-dev/+archive/alsa-daily/+sourcepub/2626453/+listing-archive-extra .
<END>

Is this change acceptable for you?

BTW, what program specifically are you using when you notice this problem (ex. Amarok, VLC, etc.)?
